Anna opened her eyes, roughly twenty minutes after she fell unconscious. She found herself on her sister Nechi's lap. The three of them were still on top of Gutaxun, and the said beast was feasting on the stegosaurus he had killed. His movements were gentle this time, because he didn't want to throw the three of them off of his back.

That aside, she also noticed that Jimmy was caressing her breasts. He had slipped his hands below her otter fur cloth, and gently squeezed her breasts.

He looked nervous, and eventually, he explained himself, "Sorry about this. It was the least invasive way I could think of to connect with your blood."

"It's okay," She coughed up a bit of blood. "You didn't fuck me back to health, so you've respected my wishes as far as I'm concerned. Hehe."

"Well, I didn't want to let you die." He said. "My powers have gotten stronger ever since we had fun last night. So, your theory about them was right, and it kinda saved your life today. I connected with your blood in seconds, through your sweet apples, and healed seven cracked bones. You really messed up your feet back there."

"I had to," She sighed. "Those spikes could've killed us on the spot. Your stupid dinosaur did not listen to anything I said."

"Well, Gutty is a dinosaur, sweetie." Nechi added, as she stroked her sister's hair. "Other than kill him, there's nothing we could've done to get him to step away from his food."

Furthermore, she said, "I wanted to kill the Spear Spine myself and spare us the trouble, but I didn't think Gutty would need any help. I'm sorry."

"It's alright," Anna answered, and then stood up. "I'm fit as a fiddle. Jimmy did a good job… speaking of which, can you let go of me now, Jimmy?"

"Oh, right." He pulled his hands back, embarrassed. "I was making sure your organs were in top shape. You're fine, I can even write you a doctor's note, hehe."

"Funny," She said, with a strong poker face. "Great word association."

Anna wasn't mad, she was just trying to switch topics, and she was also curious. She was curious over Jimmy's abilities now, so she focused on him.

"You seem awfully… present?" She pointed out. "You can heal people now without… losing your senses, or meditation, or whatever you called it?"

"A trance." He said, and his voice lowered as he described his magic, he took the topic seriously. "A trance would be the best way to describe it. Also, yeah, it doesn't take me as much work as it used to when I try to listen to someone's blood. I just needed to touch you somewhere that I considered sensual, like your breasts, and boom, that's how I started healing you. In fact, I can still hear your blood flowing, Nechi's blood too. The sound… the melody is small, barely noticeable, but I hear it. If I was to grab both of your titties right now, I'd know exactly what's going on in your bodies."

Afterwards, he added, "My magic evolved, basically, so you got lucky today. I really didn't want to 'fuck you' back to life, as you've so elegantly described it before. I still don't have a fucking clue how I tamed Gutaxun, though. I can barely hear his blood."

"Maybe his blood screamed to you when his foot was hurt." Anna pointed out. "Gutty had a limp before you tamed him."

Jimmy nodded. They've mapped out half of his abilities quite well, or at least, made some pretty good assumptions. They still had no idea why his magic worked like that, even Jimmy was clueless to some degree, as there wasn't really anyone they could ask about such magic, so they worked with what they knew.

Anna was healed, Jimmy saved her life with his magic, and that was all that mattered right now. They could figure things out later.

Anyway, Gutaxun, recently nicknamed 'Gutty' by Nechi herself, seemed to have some compassion. He had noticed that Anna was unwell, or he had at least guessed after he saw her fly around earlier on, and now, he wanted to feed her.

Gutaxun ripped a chunk of meat from the stegosaurus carcass, an estimated fifty pounds of meat, or roughly twenty-two kilograms, and then he tossed the chunk above his head.

Anna had seen this chunk fly up, so she caught it with little effort. She immediately understood that Gutaxun was trying to feed her, and her friends, because he didn't bother to turn around and look for that chunk. He kept happily chewing, and bashing his way through the carcass' insides.

"Isn't that sweet," She smiled. "Well, it's lunch time, I suppose. I brought some flint, and some iron pyrite, so let's start a fire, and throw some meat down our guts."

The three of them weren't too hungry, since it has only been three hours since they last ate. They were a bit peckish, however, so they used this opportunity to eat, because they didn't know what was waiting for them down in those grasslands, and when their next meal was going to be.

Besides, Gutaxun needed time to eat as much food as he needed. His bite force wasn't the greatest, so he had to put in a bit of work if he wanted to eat well. It took him quite some time, and he might need another fifteen minutes or so to feel full. They had to wait on him. He was their ride, after all.

As they gathered branches and started a fire, they started talking about the carcass. Despite the associated dangers, Gutaxun had landed a sizable kill today. There were shy of twenty-five hundred kilos of meat in front of them, or fifty-five hundred pounds!

It was a lot. The tribe could definitely use it, so they considered having Gutaxun drag the carcass back home. Such an amount of meat could not be wasted, and it could go bad within the day if they didn't rush to place it in the cooler portions of their cavern back home, so if they decided to drag the carcass back to the cavern, they had to do it today!

"We could drag it home, but it's gonna take a lot of time." Nechi expressed. "What about the hunters? We're supposed to be looking for them."

"Right, the hunters." Jimmy said.

He had to think about it for a moment, but then, he came up with a good idea, and pitched it, "Let's go find the hunters first. If they're close by, they can help us drag the carcass home, chunk by chunk. There are nearly ninety of them, and I'm guessing they haven't killed anything since they're not back home yet. If I'm right, they'll happily help us carry the stego meat. At least, whatever's left of it when we get back."

"Sounds good," Anna nodded.

Nechi was on board as well. They were at peace with his idea, so afterwards, they fried their meat over a couple of stones near the campfire, ate it, and then hopped on Gutaxun's back.

After such a horrible battle, they were ready to meet the grasslands, which were just fifteen or so kilometers away. They were hoping the hunters were close by, so this day could finally end.
